Até Pensei

I Even Thought

Até Pensei

Next to my street there was a forestJunto à minha rua havia um bosque
That a high wall prohibitedQue um muro alto proibia
There every balloon fell, every apple was bornLá todo balão caia, toda maçã nascia
And the owner of the forest didn't even seeE o dono do bosque nem via

On the other side so much adventureDo lado de lá tanta aventura
And I peeking in the dark nightE eu a espreitar na noite escura
Strumming this little tuneA dedilhar essa modinha
Happiness lived so closeA felicidade morava tão vizinha
That, foolishly, I even thought it was mineQue, de tolo, até pensei que fosse minha

Next to me lived my belovedJunto a mim morava a minha amada
With eyes as clear as dayCom olhos claros como o dia
There my gaze lived on dreams and fantasiesLá o meu olhar vivia de sonho e fantasia
And the owner of those eyes didn't even seeE a dona dos olhos nem via

On the other side so much joyDo lado de lá tanta ventura
And I waiting for tendernessE eu a esperar pela ternura
That deceit never came to meQue a enganar nunca me vinha
I walked poor, so poor in affectionEu andava pobre, tão pobre de carinho
That, foolishly, I even thought you were mineQue, de tolo, até pensei que fosses minha

All the pain of life taught me this little tuneToda a dor da vida me ensinou essa modinha
That, foolishly, I even thought it was mineQue, de tolo, até pensei que fosse minha
